Add an XsltListViewWebPart to a site defintion homepage

What's the best method for adding an XsltListViewWebPart to a site definition's default.aspx?

I've tried to add one to the definition's default.aspx declaratively by copying the XML from an existing page, but there are a number of references to view and list g开发者_高级运维uids which I won't have until the site is provisioned. The alternative was to programmatically add to the default.aspx via a site provisioned or feature activated event handler, but it's impossible to get a reference to the default.aspx until the site has been created.

Add XML like this to your Module section:

<View List="$Resources:core,lists_Folder;/MyList" BaseViewID="0" WebPartZoneID="Left" WebPartOrder="1" />

SharePoint 2010 will use the XsltListViewWebPart by default. You can still use the old ListViewWebPart with XML as follows:

<View List="$Resources:core,lists_Folder;/MyList" BaseViewID="0" WebPartZoneID="Left" WebPartOrder="1">
